Reactive oxygen species-associated molecular signature predicts survival in patients with sepsis.

ABSTRACT: Sepsis-related multiple organ dysfunction syndrome is a leading cause of death in intensive care units. There is overwhelming evidence that oxidative stress plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of sepsis-associated multiple organ failure; however, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-associated biomarkers and/or diagnostics that define mortality or predict survival in sepsis are lacking. Lung or peripheral blood gene expression analysis has gained increasing recognition as a potential prognostic and/or diagnostic tool. The objective of this study was to identify ROS-associated biomarkers predictive of survival in patients with sepsis. In-silico analyses of expression profiles allowed the identification of a 21-gene ROS-associated molecular signature that predicts survival in sepsis patients. Importantly, this signature performed well in a validation cohort consisting of sepsis patients aggregated from distinct patient populations recruited from different sites. Our signature outperforms randomly generated signatures of the same signature gene size. Our findings further validate the critical role of ROSs in the pathogenesis of sepsis and provide a novel gene signature that predicts survival in sepsis patients. These results also highlight the utility of peripheral blood molecular signatures as biomarkers for predicting mortality risk in patients with sepsis, which could facilitate the development of personalized therapies.

Project description:Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous malignant disease. SLC25A1, the gene encoding mitochondrial carrier subfamily of solute carrier proteins, was reported to be overexpressed in certain solid tumors. However, its expression and value as prognostic marker has not been assessed in AML. Methods: We retrieved RNA profile and corresponding clinical data of AML patients from the Beat AML, TCGA, and TARGET databases (TARGET_AML). Patients in the TCGA cohort were well-grouped into two group based on SLC25A1 and differentially expressed genes were determined between the SLC25A1 high and low group. The expression of SLC25A1 was validated with clinical samples. The survival and apoptosis of two AML cell lines were analyzed with SLC25A1 inhibitor (CTPI-2) treatment. Cox and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analyses were applied to Beat AML database to identify SLC25A1-associated genes for the construction of a prognostic risk-scoring model. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier and receiver operator characteristic curves. Results: Our analysis revealed that high expressed level of SLC25A1 in AML patients correlates with unfavorable prognosis. Moreover, SLC25A1 expression was positively associated with metabolism activity. We further demonstrated that the inhibition of SLC25A1 could inhibit the proliferation and increase the apoptosis of AML cells. In addition, a panel of SLC25A1-associated genes, was identified to construct a prognostic risk-scoring model. This SLC25A1-associated prognostic signature (SPS) is an independent risk factor with high area under curve (AUC) values of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. A high SPS in leukemia patients is associated with poor survival. A Prognostic nomogram including the SPS and other clinical parameters, was constructed and its predictive efficiency was confirmed. Conclusion: We have successfully established a SPS prognostic model that predict outcome and risk stratification in AML. This risk model can be used as an independent biomarker to assess prognosis of AML.
